Excuses, excuses!

You'd think that once school was out for the summer, I'd have time to make 1,000 drawings a day and catch up with a head full of ideas.

You'd think.

Reality is that I'm wandering around aimlessly, doing a school year's worth of assorted housework, running errands that take as much time as is available, and only to find a few minutes to stare at a blank page while all my ideas escape hurriedly.

I did find this wonderful site, Artistic Impressions of 19-th Century Industrial South Wales while thinking about yesterday's bombings and my Mom's personal history.

There ya go - it's in the blood.
